The structure of a small molecule can also be shown as a three-dimensional ball and stick model. These models show how the atoms and bonds are arranged in space. The diagram shows a ball and stick ...

Researchers have shown, for the first time, how the genetic material of the Nipah virus replicates in infected cells. The virus can cause fatal encephalitis in humans.

Scientists have for the first time looked deep into the protein structure that may determine our vision—and discovered that ...

What have we learned about RNA structure and function so far? Although RNA is a single-stranded molecule, researchers soon discovered that it can form double-stranded structures, which are ...

But James Watson and Francis Crick's claim was a valid one, for they had in fact discovered the structure of DNA, the chemical that encodes instructions for building and replicating almost all ...

Different types of chemical bonding, and patterns and trends can be observed in their arrangement. Structure and bonding Elements are held together in different ways and the properties of chemical ...
